Already dealing with disruptive market forces, the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) faced fundamental challenges resulting from the global health crisis, wrought by the COVID-19 pandemic. With catastrophic changes to cultural consumption, cultural organizations are dealing with short-, medium-, and long-term threats to livelihoods under lockdown.

This book aims at filling the literature gap about the consequences of one of the hardest crises – COVID-19 – severely impacting all the fields of the CCIs. With a focus on European countries and taking into account the evolving and unstable context caused by the pandemic still in progress, this book investigates the first reactions and actual strategies of CCIs’ actors, government bodies, and cultural institutions facing the COVID-19 crisis and the potential consequences of these emergency strategies for the future of the CCIs. Solutions adopted during the repeated lockdowns by CCIs’ actors could originate new forms of cultural consumption and/or new innovative market strategies. This book brings together a constellation of contributors to analyze the cultural sector as it seeks to emerge from this existential challenge.

The global perspectives presented in this book provide research-based evidence to understand and reflect on an unprecedented period, allowing reflective practitioners to learn and develop from a range of real-world cases. The book will also be of interest to researchers, academics, and students with a particular interest in the management of cultural and creative organizations and crisis management.

Reviews for Cultural Industries and the Covid-19 Pandemic: A European Focus

"""A timely and much needed overview of the state of the cultural and creative industries across Europe in the time of pandemic. The three foci of responses: at the local, labour market and national and institutional levels, provide lucid and detailed new evidence that culture matters more than ever; but sadly, that our information sources are deficient, and policy responses are insufficient. Read it and weep: we must do better!"" Andy C Pratt, Professor of Cultural Economy and Director of Centre for Culture and the Creative Industries, City, University of London, UK ""This edited volume adds diverse case studies to the current literature. Its biggest merits are the focused overview of the cultural industries during the Covid crisis, the coverage of several European countries and the country-specific details."" Hye-Kyung Lee, International Journal of Cultural Policy ""A timely and much needed overview of the state of the cultural and creative industries across Europe in the time of pandemic. The three foci of responses: at the local, labour market and national and institutional levels, provide lucid and detailed new evidence that culture matters more than ever; but sadly, that our information sources are deficient, and policy responses are insufficient. Read it and weep: we must do better!"" Andy C Pratt, Professor of Cultural Economy and Director of Centre for Culture and the Creative Industries, City, University of London, UK ""We all missed going to the theatre, a cinema or entering an art gallery, but few outside the industry really understand the depth and breadth of the impact that the Covid pandemic has had on the creative and cultural industries. This volume fills that important void. It presents an insightful, rigorous and heartfelt investigation of the short and longer-term bearing of the pandemic on creative and cultural industries, as well as its people, with a selection of international case studies that provides close up analyses of national responses and policy initiatives, whilst bringing to life a global canvas of adaptation and resilience."" Lisa De Propris, Professor of Regional Economic Development and Head of the Business and Labour Economics Group, University of Birmingham, UK"
